Taste gets lost in the CNN.com Katrina shuffle

Screen grab (red ellipse added by me); this has been on the home page for 15 minutes or so now. I realize that "Watch" is the CNN.com general heading for any streaming video, but you'd think someone would have thought of the effect the combination would have.

The clip is mainly about rescues but yes, there's a brief shot or two of bobbing bodies.

2. Sorry, but reality bites and sometimes leaves a bad taste.

Bodies do bob when they are in the water.

I think Bush, Rove, Cheney, Chertoff, Brown or even Hastert that line more than you do: Bodies bobbing in the water.

3. Didn't watch the video, but answer this: Are the bodies "looters" or

"finders"?

4. Just a storm victim, I think
